The Chemistry program prepares students for industrial or government laboratory work or graduate work in Chemistry or Biochemistry. The Chemistry emphasis provides a strong foundation for students entering the professional health fields, especially the pre-professional programs such as Pre-Medical, Pre-Dental, Pharmacy and Medical Technology.
The Geochemistry emphasis couples a solid foundation in analytical chemistry with the deductive thinking skills, three-dimensional visualization skills, and fundamental understanding of earth materials that the earth sciences offer. Students graduating with this major are prepared for careers in the geo-technical industry as well as continuing their education in a graduate program in the Environmental Earth Sciences.
Students may also complete courses required for secondary teaching certification.
